m running sygate firewall and this message keeps popping up every 20-30mins

An application named Universa Application
(File name win12c4.tmp.exe)
Has been blocked from accessing the network

Im not bothered about it but just wondered if anyone knew what is it,Or related to?
I havent installed anything new lately and run a spyware and virus check. All come back clean.

No need to worry, I figured it was gone or either inactive one of the two, so let me look at two more scans to make sure I do not see anything

Download ISeeYou from here:
http://forum.networktechs.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=22492&d=1140226765

-Save to your desktop for now

Download Blacklight from here:
http://www.f-secure.com/blacklight/try.shtml
-- Once you’ve installed it, Click Scan
-- DO NOT have it Fix or Rename anything yet
-- A Log should pop up – Please save that submit it for me when you return

Now reboot to Safe Mode
-double click ISeeYou.bat
-It will run for 10 seconds or so, then notepad will open
-Save that and attach it for me here

Hi. Firstly id like to say thanks for all the help. Is much appreciated. thank you

Did you not run it from Safe Mode? It should be ran from there to begin with. If you didn't please run it from Safe Mode.

Is that temp file located on your PC?

Go to Start>Search
-Enter win12c4.tmp.exe in the Filename box
-Choose More Advanced Options
-Check all three options and click Search

  • Search system folders
  • Search hidden files and folders
  • Search subfolders

I am a little concerned about this one


Check that line in HijackThis and then choose Fix Checked

Go here:
http://virusscan.jotti.org/
-Upload C:\WINDOWS\winexy32.exe and post the results back here.

Also - I told you wrong here, you should try uploading C:\WINDOWS\winexy32.dll

Give that a shot - my mistake.

i ran it in safe mode. once that runthis.bat file had finished. it said press any key to continue and will open disk clean up. i left the pc for about 20mins in safe mode but disk cleanup didnt even start or appear in the task manager

that file cannot be found. am i cured now?

I do see one thing, please look in Add/Remove Programs and uninstall

UltimateBuddy

May want to consider uninstalling the Poker games as well...


Other than that, all that was found in any of the scans was the 020 line of HijackThis that appeared to be inactive. I can't say for sure if the problem is from your PC - or if something is trying to access your PC, and your Firewall is doing it's job. :)

It really sounded like a problem Smitrem would show and didnt

cool. thanks

I dont seem to have that file on my pc now. but i know i did have the dll file-winexy32.dll

some reason aint on my system now

I editted my post to include uninstalling UltimateBuddy - I overlooked it as it kind of blended in with all the Poker Games :lol:

The process is harmful as it refers to adware and spyware program types. The application collects personal and secret information from your computer (e.g. passwords) and sends it to third parties. Moreover, your Internet experience may be interrupted by a multitude of pop-up windows and banners. The process must be deleted immediately.

Also-may not hurt to remove them Poker games...

Whats wrong with ultimate buddy aswell? I know of this program. Its a program to log and chat to my friends on poker sites. www.ultimatebuddy.com

If its a problem i can easily remove. its not that important to me

ok will delete as its not needed . thanks

Glad I could help :)

Glad I could help :)

Thanks for all the help and time mate. You've been great. Very much appreciated.
